QUESTION

I receive the following message:

• "#272032367 - The pattern associated with the material [MATERIAL NAME] is producing too many pattern lines. Some of the lines will not be displayed."

What does this mean?

ANSWER

This is an informational message that may occur if the material that you're attempting to view has a large amount of pattern lines. To prevent performance degradation, the program will automatically hide some of the lines associated with the material's pattern; however, this process should not have a drastic effect on the overall display of the material.

Click OK to continue. If you start to experience slowness when the referenced material is being displayed, consider toggling pattern lines off by navigating to 3D> Toggle Patterns .
